EIGHT — □ A Statement by the President Years roll by. Students come and go like the waves of the sea. Sometimes the waves play on the white sand and disappear. Other times they run and play like children. They occasionally reach high levels and hammer away at the rocks far above the normal shore level. So it is with the students. They move in and out like the tides of the sea. Some years they seem quite mediocre. The in- tellectual, social and religious life is very low. They may be like children playing in the market place. Other years they seem to surge with life, sparkle with intelligence, live and love in beautiful and rich fellowships. They are found hammering away at the more difficult tasks far above the common shore line of life. Such a stu- dent body is represented in the annual for 1934-’35. It has been said “There were giants in those days.” One might well say “There are giants in these days.” It has been a great pleasure and profit to fellowship with stu- dents and faculty during this present college year. I wish for each and every one the joys and successes in life which the present por- tends. □ 1935 NINE Ashby c. Blackwell Vice President of the College and Professor of Chemistry and Geology. A. B..

A group of one hundred ten “bright green Freshmen”, getting tickets the year before, entered the fourth-class coach of the “Morris Harvey Special” in search of knowledge of the bigger and better things of life, September 1 1, 1934. Our passenger list was the biggest in history to board the Morris Harvey Special. An eager, jolly and carefree group of Freshmen on board the Special were preparing for the four-year journey of continuous riding and studying in dif- ferent places along the road. By the end of the first several weeks’ travel we began to feel somewhat used to the way the “engineer,” President Riggleman. was driving the train over the rails of education; to the “fireman,” Dean Walton; officers of the Special,” the student council; the train crew,” the faculty; and to the second, third, and fourth class “mail cars,” Seniors, Juniors, and Sophomores, who gave orders while traveling. The jolly Freshmen made their first stop at dear oY M. H. C. auditorium and elected Dean Glenn as the “conductor.” We decided to be a history- making class for M. H. C. With this aim in view we elected Bernie Hope president to lead us on our journey, and Roy Fulk vice president to take his place if the president should happen to want to stop in Maytown. Rachel Snyder, our secretary, who once was secretary to “Lord Van Buren Vargo,” was aided by Ruth Jarvis, treasurer, who carried our money. Hon. Franklin Leggett, the world’s greatest newspaper editor, was elected publicity director to publish all news aboard the Freshman Special. Leggett, an honor member of our group, belongs to the Z. K. fraternity. Clara Thompson and Paul Shumaker were to join the “officers of the Special” as Freshmen class representatives. Our journey was brightened the night we stopped at the Wallace Farm, October 15, for the first Freshman weiner roast. We seemed green enough, for the girls were carrying big paddles. Bright green ribbons were tied around their ankles. On the boys’ heads were parked bright yellow and red caps, making them look as ridiculous as court jesters in the time of King Alfred. What fun the upper classmen have at initiation! That night the Freshmen seemed to be the peppiest group aboard the Special. One of our members, Dayton Detamore, stopped off at White Sulphur Springs. He was the only Freshman representing the Special tennis team at the state intercollegiate contest. “My cow,” why shouldn’t I talk about him? He’s a hero. Of course, I am talking about tennis! We made several stops to see the famous Golden Eagles bring victory to our dear oY Alma Mater, in football. We witnessed one of the greatest games of the season, at Fairfield Stadium, with Marshall College. We were very proud of Baldwin, Clay, Fulk, Lookabill, Miller, Morris, and Vaught, foot- ball heroes who received letters aboard the Special. □ 1935 - SEVENTEEN □ Many evenings we put away all worries and rested or made merry as we listened to two crooning favorite singers of the M. H. quartet. Bob Hastings and Dayton Detamore. One of the most interesting stops we made was the night of February 14. Fhe Importance of Being Earnest , one of the best play productions of the year, was presented. Characters portrayed by Freshmen were Dorothy Rogers, Ruth Ann Wilkerson, Rachel Snyder, and Bob Dorsey. Dorsey made the highest scholastic average on the Special during the second quarter, having a 3.5 quality point average in all his subjects. The Blackfriar Dramatic Club has twenty- five Freshmen enrolled. In the future we expect to see some famous actors and actresses from this group. Good ol times will not be forgotten. For many a night honored Fresh- men were called back to the caboose and received minor “remembrances” (?) for becoming full-fledged sorority or fraternity members. It was in March that we found ourselves in the midst of a big basketball classic. The crowd cheered and yelled as three husky basketeers, Detamore, Fulk, and Robinson, marched down the aisle and received the dear o V emblem, “M. H. ' as varsity players. We saw a huge crowd of basketball fans waiting patiently for the class tournament to start, so we sent in Captain McClure, Miller, Farley, Perry, Bowne, Fox, Rupe, and Baisden to battle the chesty Seniors. With the aid of their coach, Bruce Robinson, they went to the finals. Freshmen girls showed plenty spirit, pep and basketball knowledge, playing three extra periods in an effort to break a tie score. Coach Detamore brought back the sharpshooting Freshmen to play in the finals. Gwinn, Schrader, Smith, Coe, Adkins, and Captain Ruth Ann bowed by a lucky break for the Sophomores. On March 1 3 our passengers sat in hushed silence as we listened to one of our honorable members broadcast in the state debate tournament, the most stirring debate of the year. We crown Rhenus O ' Dell the best Freshman de- bater on the Special. I was very proud of my cheerleading letter, even though Dr. Walker called me a stick of dynamite. I think it would take fifty to “explode” a yell when we need one. “Goodness gracious,” yell next year! Bob Harmon was a valuable man on our journey. He was always ready to help Buddy, Jr., as assistant student manager. He looks like a real baseball pitcher. With such players aboard the Special as McClure, Shu- maker, Perry, Morris, Robinson, and McCoy, we expect to witness the greatest baseball games ever played, on our last few weeks travel, and cheer you on to victory. Our journey being almost over we decided to stop off at the C. 0 O. brick yards and spend a delightful evening roasting weiners and marshmallows. We were entertained by the wise cracker of the evening, Buddy Ramsey. There are three more years to travel to complete our four-year journey. With the ability learned, and happy memories from the first journey, and with the same competent “train crew,” the Freshman class will ride by with flying colors, waving the Gold and Blue. Ruth Ann Wilkerson, Historian . EIGHTEEN 1935 FOOTBALL Coach W. H. Walker Football in Review Five defeats, three victories, and one tie was the record of the Golden Eagles for the 1934 season. The Golden Eagles opened the season in a night game September 28 with Dayton University, at Dayton, Ohio. In the first half of the game Day- ton scored 25 points, but in the second half the Golden Eagles came back with fire in their eyes and outplayed the Flyers , scoring 14 points. The Eagles were on the short end of a 31-14 score as the game ended. On October 5, the Golden Eagles journeyed to Matewan to encounter the highly touted Concord eleven. The “Preachers got off to a flying start, scoring on a long pass from Fulk to Kelley who ran 25 yards for a touchdown. Late in the second quarter Concord blocked a punt for the “Preachers , and a few moments later Concord scored on a line play. Concord made the extra point, making the score 7-6, Concord s favor. With one and one-half minutes to play, and Concord deep in the Eagle’s territory, Howard Rutter, an Eagle halfback, intercepted a Concord pass on the Preachers two-yard line, and ran 98 yards in the greatest play of the game for the Eagles’ second touchdown. The game ended with Morris Harvey on the long end of a 20-7 score. □ NINETEEN □ Taylor Cr em e a n s , Fred (Tex) Griffin, Howard Rutter. Roy Fulk, Edward Kelly, Marion Vickers, Gerald Vaught, Carl Miller. Emory Bowne, Robert Clay, Earl Yeager, Homer Eggles- ton. Dexter Morris, Donald Miller. Robert McCoy, Overton Biggs. Morris Harvey encountered Bluefield on October 12. The Preachers were handicapped in this game by several injuries. Then, too, Coach W. H. Muley Walker was looking forward to the Marshall game, saving his man power for the expected climax of the season. With the first stringers out of the game the Bluefield eleven proved too strong for the Eaglets. The game ended with Morris Harvey on the short end of the 33-0 score. The Morris Harvey Golden Eagles, on October 19, journeyed to Hunt- ington to encounter the Marshall “Thundering Herd.” During the first half of the game the Golden Eagles played an exceptionally good defensive game, and it was only through two breaks of which Marshall made the utmost, that she was able to score in the first half. Several injuries received early in the second half weakened the Eagles considerably. The Thundering Herd scored three touchdowns in the second half, bringing the score to a total of 29-0 in favor of Marshall. The most exciting game of the year was played at King Field, Barbours- ville, when West Liberty College journeyed here in high hopes of trimming the Preachers. They were stopped at the outset of the game by the fighting Eagles. The orange and black gridders of West Liberty soon recovered their setback at the outset of the game, and scored the first touchdown of the game in the first quarter. The try for extra point was good. The Preachers came back for the second half with the determination to take the meat from the orange and black gridders, but were unable to make headway through the opposing line. The Eagles soon took to the air but were held at bay by West Liberty until the last quarter when Morris Harvey pushed over a touchdown, tieing the score, 7-7. On November 9, the Eagles, in high spirits, left Barboursville, for Grove City, Pa., where they encountered the strong Grove City eleven November 10. Morris Harvey was defeated by a 40-0 score. On November 16 the Eagles loaded their war bags and set off for Mont- gomery where they were destined to give New River a sound beating. Coach Walker started the second quarter of the game with the second string Preachers, TWENTY Paul Shumaker, Harold Amick. Charles Ghee, Miller Gwinn, Bromley Workman, Harry Lookabill, William McCoy, Bee Scott. Elbert Burns, Lionel Canter- bury, Loren Wiseman, Alvin Millard. Pierce Fox, Frances Haynes, William Lucas, A. C. Forsyth, Jr. who held the New River Bears scoreless to the end of the first half. The Morris Harvey second team returned to the fight for the last quarter, boosting the score to 40-0 before the end of the game. Approaching the end of the season Morris Harvey engaged the Glenville “Pioneers’ ' , November 24, in a game at King’s Field. The Pioneers boasted of a strong team, but they were no match for the high-flying Eagles who rode rough shod over them in a comparatively easy game. The score at the end of the game was 27-0. The end has come, as it must come in every sport. The Golden Eagles took leave November 29 for Salem where they were to defend their Alma Mater against Salem College. The game was hard fought, but was lost to the Salem “Tigers” who clawed their way to a 14-7 victory. Howard “Burr” Rutter, Halfback “Burr” is a four-letter man in football, one of the best men on the turf as well as on the basketball court. He was an outstanding back, always found in the thick of the fight. A good open field runner, Burr was also an excep- tionally good ground gainer. He has played his last game for Morris Harvey, and will be missed by the Eagles next year. Edward “Ed” Kelly, End The end that was an end was “Ed” Kelly. The “old reliable of the left side of the line, Ed was always dependable and a big factor to be reckoned with in any game. As an all-state end he won high honor for the Eagles. Our loss will be a great gain for some school because Ed is leaving us to coach the game he loves. Earl Yeager, End Earl is a good end, was always in the thick of battle. Voted by the student body as the best all around athlete in Morris Harvey. □ 1935 G TWENTY-ONE Carl “Joe” Miller, Guard “Joe’s” worth can not be measured. He held up the opposing line in game after game, won all-state honors on the United Press teams three consecu- tive years for Morris Harvey. Lionel “Dee” Canterbury, Fullback This was “Dee’s” last year battling for the old school. Dee got his knee injured in his second year with the Eagles and only appeared in one game this year — Marshall. His hard, fearless line plunges were missed by the Eagles, but he gave good support from the sidelines. Fred “Tex” GRIFFIN, Quarterback This was “Tex’s” third year of battling with the Golden Eagles. Tex is a little, but mighty man. Tex, as quarterback, guided the destiny of his team by calling signals for it. Taylor Cremeans, End Taylor is an all-around athlete, playing baseball and football. An earnest, efficient and hard player, Taylor will be missed by the Eagles. He always gave the opposition trouble, never failing his teammates in a crisis. The honor of being captain of the Golden Eagles was accorded to all the Seniors, from time to time, during the season. The HARVEYAN staff deeply regrets that a biographical sketch for each player could not be placed in this publication, but space is very limited. As a tribute of respect to the Senior members who were on the squad, we have found space to make a few statements concerning them.

However, students from other schools felt the silent call to Morris Harvey. But they knew not that they were to be a part of the illustrous class whose history is here revealed. For two years we have climbed upward and onward, until we are about to realize that we are in truth soon to be Juniors, and deserve to be recognized as such. Our class was organized at the beginning of the school year of 1934, and Charles Ghee, better known as Ghee, was chosen to lead us through the year of success and failure. We have spent this year quietly in diligent study, but scarcely were we organized ere our influence began to be felt, for such a class as ours could not keep all its genius quiet. From the very outset we let no grass grow under our feet, and in a very few weeks our fame had spread abroad. Our representatives on the gridiron reflected the greatness of the class by their phenomenal athletic work. In fact there was no field of activity in our Alma Mater that was not represented by some member of our class. The Sophomore class was well represented in the celebrities of the school. Miss Ruth Copley, of Logan, was elected the most intellectual girl in college, and Miss Opal May, of Maytown, Ky., was voted the most popular co-ed on the campus. The Sophomore class is proud of the scholastic record it has set. Many of its members have been placed on the honor roll. Messrs. Robert Barton and Henry Turner have the highest scholastic record in school with an average of 3.2 and 3.6, respectively. This is a record that is envied by the most digni- fied of the Seniors. In the intermural basketball tournament the Sophomore girls were de- termined not to feel the sting of defeat. There were five overtime periods be- fore the deadlock was broken. It seemed as though neither of the opposing teams could break through the airtight defense of the Freshman lassies. At last the Sophomores were able to break through the defense and win one of the most spectacular and hardest fought games ever played in an intermural tourna- ment. The Sophomore boys had little trouble in doing away with the Juniors in the initial part of the tournament. In the finals the Freshman team put up a great fight to stem the offiense of the Sophs, but little availed them for their effort. These games crowned the Sophomores the unchallenged and undis- puted champions of the school. The members of the Sophomore class have always responded readily to all activities sponsored by the college. They do their task with a will that makes the old adage real: “Where there is a will there is a way. □ TWENTY-NINE I would that I could give a history of each member of the class, but I must mention only a few of their collective virtues for space and time will not permit me to do otherwise. Some are gifted with voices that are rivals to Bing Crosby; some are silver tongued orators as said of William Jennings Bryan: some can read Spanish, German or French as easily as their own native English: some others with the athletic abilities of Dixie Howell: others are possessed of the ability to ask more questions in one minute than anybody else could answer in a week. But why should I dwell on the glories of our class? Much more may be said, perhaps good, bad and indifferent. Only the future can tell to what heights our classmates will climb. But rest assured, whether we are still con- tinuing our studies at Morris Harvey, instructing the men of tomorrow, or what profession we may choose for a life’s work, we will fill our position in life with equal grace and dignity, that we tread the campus of Morris Harvey. We will endeavor to never do anything that will reflect on our glorious class, or our Alma Mater, or our glorious year of 1934 and ’35, and always strive to make ourselves worthy of our motto: “Always lead: never follow.” Who ' s Who in the Sophomore Class Best looking woman Opal May Best looking man Richards Roberts Best athlete Overton Biggs Most smiling woman Maxine Clark Most smiling man Ben Kiff Song birds Rebecca Jackson, Charles Ghee Most representative woman Arthelia Hilleary Most representative man Robert Barton Wittiest woman Stella Cooksey Wittiest man Overton Biggs Most studious woman Arthelia Hilleary Most studious man Henry Turner Most serious woman Ruth Copley Most serious man Robert Barton BASKETBALL Gymnasium muuuunn rTTTTTTTTTI ®1935 s niHIIMIITT?!

H. “Muley” Walker’s basketball men have completed one of the best records made by Morris Harvey teams in several years. Flashing a new ability, the team hung up a season’s record of 14 victories and 13 defeats. The Eagles scored 1050 points against the opponents’ 1011 point s; their shooting ability equalled that of their opponents, with 176 foul shots out of 335, and 190 out of 368 for their opponents; the average being 52 per cent for the Eagles and their opponents. Morris Harvey made 437 field goals to their opponents 411. The Eagles were a rough and ruddy team this year which accounts for the high percentage of personal fouls that were called on them. The fouls as called were 301 for Morris Harvey, and only 267 for the opposition. Morris Harvey will lose four regulars and one substitute this year, all the seniors are going to be difficult to replace. The undergraduates of Morris Harvey are proud of the boys who wore the red and gold this year, and hate to see them go. although we realize we have good Freshman material to carry on for Morris Harvey in the years to come. We offer no alibis for our defeats but recall the hard won victories that made the walls of our gym tremble with the shouts and cheers of faithful Eagle supporters. We only hope that their suc- cess may continue under the capable hands of Dr. Walker. i Tiiurrr.iT 1935 THIRTY -TWO Robert McCoy Guard DOYLE FOX HARRY LOOKABILL ' Varsity — Forward Frank Williams PAUL SHUMAKER William McCoy Howard “Burr” Rutter led the scoring for the Eagles this year, making a total of 343 points. Burr shot 138 field goals and 67 fouls. On the basket- ball court Burr was one of the fastest and best shots in southern West Virginia, and will be greatly missed in the lineup next year. May your goal in life be as beautifully made as you made the go als on the court, Burr. Roy Fulk was second in the scoring line with a total of 174 points. Roy is a Freshman this year, and great things are expected of him next year. More power to you, Roy. The third highest scorer for the Golden Eagles was none other than the captain of the Eagle quintet, Taylor Cremeans, who scored a total of 143 points. Taylor was one of the outstanding guards in southern West Virginia, and what a guard! He was always covering his man and loved to rough it up with the opposition. Following close behind was Edward “Ed” Kelley, with a total score of 140 points. Ed was one of the fastest basketball players in southern West Virginia. When Ed shot, it was like a marksman making a bull’s eye, because it was seldom that Ed missed the loop. He leaves us this year with our best wishes for a successful career. □ a 1935 O THIRTY-THREE =™C] Other outstanding players for the Golden Eagles this year were: Earl Yeager, who played much better basketball than he had any previous year, but did not get to see much service due to the keen competition of some of the Eaglets: Dayton Detamore, Freshman: Bruce Robinson, Freshman: Dexter Morris, Freshman: and Harry Lookabill, Freshman. Members of the Eaglet team this year were: Robert “Bob” McCoy, Gene Adkins. Doyle “Foxie” Fox, Paul Shumaker, Marion “Vick” Vickers, and Frank Williams. Coach W. H. “Muley” Walker of the Morris Harvey Golden Eagles is a former student of Morris Harvey, and was welcomed back to Morris Harvey a few years ago as an instructor in the athletic department. For the past three years Coach Walker has been directing the destiny of the Eagle basketball team, but was placed as head coach for basketball and football this year. Another name that is inseparable with athletic history in Morris Harvey is Alexander “Buddy” Forsyth, Jr. Buddy has been with us for four years, and it is with regret that we see him leave for his home in the southland. As student manager of the Eagles, Buddy will long remain in the memories of Morris Harvey students. The four outstanding games of the basketball season were played with Marshall College, Salem College, West Virginia Wesleyan College, and Fair- mont State Teachers College. Without a doubt the greatest game of the season, and the victory Morris Harvey had been waiting for for years, was over Marshall College in a never-to- be-forgotten contest. Marshall came to Morris Harvey confident that they would pluck the Eagles’ tail feathers. Morris Harvey was rated as the under- dog before the game, but after the game it was a different story. Rutter and Kelley, forwards: Robinson and Cremeans, guards, and Detamore, center, started the game for the Eagles. Two of these boys, Rutter and Cremeans, had been waiting for four years to stop the “Thundering Herd”, and they were stopped. Robinson and Cremeans played an exceptionally good defensive game. At the close of the first half the Thundering Herd had a two-point lead over the Eagles. Beginning the second half, it was nick-and-tuck for the lead, although the Eagles had a 13-point lead at one time in the third quarter, and the net con- tinued to swish as the Eagles rolled the score up to 43 points. The Thunder- ing Herd strained every muscle to stop the high-flying Eagles, but to no avail. The game ended with Morris Harvey in the lead by four points, the final score being 43-39, and the very campus shook with the yelling that came from the old Eagles’ nest.

These teams were composed of R. Talmage Mallory and Thomas Hopson, runners-up in the state debate contest at Huntington, March 1 and 2, and Rhenus O’Dell and Miss Jean Biggart. On the first day of the state contest at Huntington the teams from Mor- ris Harvey met six teams, defeating five of the six. The following day the team composed of Mr. Mallory and Mr. Hopson defeated Fairmont State and met West Virginia Wesleyan in the championship round, with the result that Wesleyan gained a two to one decision. The subject of the debates this year was: Resolved — “That the nations should agree to prevent the international shipment of arms and munitions.” Each of these teams debated both sides of the question during the tournament. During the season they have taken part in twenty-two debates with teams from other colleges of this state and of adjoining states. Of these twenty debates, Morris Harvey won nine of the eleven decision contests. During the month of February, both teams had a five-day trip to the northern part of the state, at which time they met Salem, Davis and Elkins, Fairmont, and Wesleyan. A trip into the southern part of the state was also made. On this trip, Bluefield College and Concord State Teachers College were defeated. Another trip was made to Rio Grande, Ohio. The debating season was officially closed with a non-decision double de- bate between Morris Harvey and Beckley College. Letters and certificates of award were granted to the debating club.

We entered the portals of Morris Harvey, with the ink upon high school diplomas scarcely dry, in the autumn of 1932. We have received many benefits that will aid us in our future life and will prove, we hope, to be dom- inating factors in the course of our lives as the years go by. Durng our Freshman year, with Jack Lee as president, we achieved suc- cess in varied fields of collegiate activity. In the field of athletics, under the guidance and supervision of Mr. Men- dall Beattie, class sponsor, we placed on the basketball court a basketball team made up of members from our class which was second to none of its calibre in the conference. Our Freshman basketball team for the year 1932-’33, won victories over such stellar opposition as Marshall College Freshmen and the Morris Harvey varsity. In the spring of 1933 our class contributed many men who rendered commendable service to the Varsity Track Team. Our class track team won the intermural class track meet at the conclusion of the track season. In the field of dramatics during the same year many members of our class were active in several productions presented by the Blackfriar Dramatic Club. When we returned to Morris Harvey in the autumn of 1933 we found a glorious transition in our class — we were no longer Freshmen! We had in- herited the mantle left by the Sophomores of the preceding year, and we had now acquired the mature wisdom befitting a Sophomore. That year our class was again active in dramatic circles in addition to placing two men on the de- bating team. In the field of dramatics, members of our class played important parts. Last fall (1934) when we returned to Morris Harvey after our vacations we found ourselves to be full-fledged Juniors. Many of our classmates of the two preceding years had dropped out of school to take their places in the teach- ing profession and many other lines of endeavor. Although many members of our original class have dropped out of school, our remaining number has been somewhat swelled by the influx of stu- dents who had done part of their work in other schools. Students who have taken their place in our class from other institutions are: R. Talmage Mallory, from Kanawha Junior College: Louise Scott Yoak. from Fairmont State Col- lege: and Clinton B. Hastings, from Randolph Macon College. The Junior class of 1 9 34-’3 5 placed three men on the varsity Debating Club. They were Thomas J. Hopson. R. Talmage Mallory, and Bob oak. Members of the Junior class took part in the production of The Valiant, and The Importance of Being Earnest. Now. in the spring of 1 935, we are looking forward with eager anticipa- tion to next fall when we will be recognized as the Senior class of M. H. C. But regardless of the responsibilities and pleasures pertaining to the lofty posi- tion of being a member of the Senior class we are sure that we will not enjoy ourselves any more than we have during the past three years, benefiting from the fellowship and good will of our classmates and professors here at dear old Morris Harvey. 1935 □ L PSHBI FORTY -SEVEN Epsilon Chapter of Chi Beta Phi Scientific Fraternity President Vice President Recording Secretary Corresponding Secretary T reasurer Sponsor Marlin Bias Edward Stafford Henry Turner Ralph Watkins - — Richard Roberts Prof. A.

Several members took an active part in the Chi Beta Phi National Con- vention held in Huntington, W. Va., November 29, 30, and December 1, 1934. Honors in the form of grand officers were conferred on three members of the local chapter. Prof. A. C. Blackwell was reelected grand president; E. S. Shannon reelected grand vice president; Virgil W.

This group was com- posed of Messrs. R. Talmage Mallory, Clark Ankrum. Joseph Dickinson, and honorary members, Rev. R. J. Matheny. and Prof. C. E. Roth. Bi-monthly meetings were held throughout the year. At these regular meetings, members of the fraternity contributed in a literary way to a program. Much is to be accomplished by such procedure. A study of the poetry of Carl Sandberg was made, and a paper on juvenile literature was presented by Mr. Mallory. These two efforts mark the high spots in the literary activity of the fraternity. The Sigma Upsilon presented an assembly program in which the work “Forty Singing Seamen . by Alfred Noyes, was presented. With the election of officers for next year Sigma Upsilon will close its official year. □ 1935 FIFTY-ONE Phi Sigma Phi Fraternity OFFICERS President .

K. K. caused the name to be changed to Beta Kappa, and as B. K., the fraternity existed until T hanksgiving Day. 1928. After several years of such investigation and summarizing of reports, a ‘National Convention” was called to meet in Barboursville and Huntington. W. Va., on November 30, 1928, thus bringing together active and alumni members of the organization. It was unanimously decided at this time that there was definite need for an order which would offer an opportunity for frat- ernity advantages to men in small colleges, unable to afford the many expenses of the usual currently existant fraternity. Such an order was formed, a Grand Chapter established and the organization declared national. Briefly stated, Zeta Kappa, as thus formed, is an order which offers every fraternal advantage; one which depends largely upon the local chapter as to local activity and condition, yet is governed and made more or less uniform through a national chapter: one in which the national expenses are small and local expenses regulated by local conditions; one which may be of equal service to the chapter which maintains a house, or the chapter in a college where dor- mitory facilities make a house unnecessary. Its aims are high, its organization founded upon a strong ideal and its capacity for service unlimited. Each year the fraternity has an annual banquet, near the close of the school year. Social activities are confined largely to the men on the campus, and are held in the fraternity house.

The purpose of this organization is to vitalize the Christian experience of its members, and to build up an atmosphere on this campus that will be conducive to Christian living. The Life Service Group has existed for a num- ber of years and has been active in promoting Christian fellowship among its members, and enriching the life on the campus of Morris Harvey College. Dean Walton, sponsor of the club, has blessed the organization with his fine Christian spirit and his devotion to all that is noble and uplifting. We lose him this year as sponsor, since his work calls him elsewhere, but his memory will ever be an inspiration to the members of this group. We have been fortunate also in having a fine Christian young man, Winton R. Houck, as president during the current year. We are looking for- ward to a successful year in 1936 .

A record enrollment! The beginning of a new year for those ‘ sophisticates” who were eagerly starting a new year at their Alma Mater, and the beginning of a new and different life for those “greenies who call themselves Freshmen. The school started out with a “bang ! The Freshman class has the largest enrollment in the history of the school, and we’re proud of ’em. The faculty has eight new members: Miss Mary Catherine Owen, Mr. Clarence E. Roth. Dr. Frieda K. Merry, Dr. Ralph V. Merry. Mr. J. Marvin Glenn. Mr. E. R. Dorsey, and Rev. R. J. Matheny. Student body, take heed! The faculty will get you, if you don’t watch out! An outstanding social event of the year was the annual reception given by Morris Harvey College to welcome the new students at Rosa Harvey Hall. October The various organizations are in full swing now. The Freshman class enthusiastically embarked on an outing at the Wallace Farm. Celebrating the six weeks’ grades? The three upper classes, being more serious-minded than the Freshmen, went about the business of electing class officers for the year. We are confident of the abilities of those who were elected, and know they are well chosen. Phi Lambda Tau held a tea for the new women students of Morris Har- vey College, an affair which was greatly enjoyed. November The Debating Club held its initial gathering and chose officers for the year. Competition was keen. Final exams, and the first quarter is over. December Another quarter began, and more new students enrolled in the college. The basketball squad started training with high hopes for a successful season, and we’re right with ’em. Open house at Rosa Harvey Hall — more fun, more cleaning, and more inspected rooms! Faculty members and townspeople were invited to look the rooms over and decide which was the most attractive. Prof. A. C. Blackwell, vice president of Morris Harvey College, was elected grand president of Chi Beta Phi fraternity (an honorary scientific fr aternity) at the second national convention held in Lynchburg, Va. Morris Harvey is exceedingly proud of its distinguished faculty member. He has done much for the advancement of the college. The Blackfriars presented their first one-act play, entitled T he Valiant , in the college auditorium. The club contains considerable talent. It made a remarkable success of its first play. January The sororities and fraternities began rush season. Pledge yourself with strictest loyalty! SIXTY-NINE February Now that basketball season is just about over, we can take a deep breath and give three cheers for the Eagles. They had a very successful season and are ready to go into baseball with the same vim, vigor, and vitality. The biggest victory seems to have been the first game with Marshall. A very interesting and helpful exhibit was established by the college in Rosa Harvey Hall. The purpose of the project is to display natural objects of our own state and other countries. A permanent museum has been planned. With the cooperation of the townspeople, students and faculty, we can be assured of its success. The Blackfriars presented the most outstanding play of the year. The play was entitled The Importance of Being Earnest. A good play and good performances. A new club has been organized, known as the Morris Harvey Country Life Club. Its purpose is to create greater interest in rural life through a de- tailed study of its social aspects. We are confident of its success. Miss Stella Cooksey was elected president. The student body regrets the resignation of Dean A. J. Walton, who has left the college to accept the secretaryship of the Department of Church Admin- istration and Extension of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, in Nash- ville, Tenn. Dr. P. E. Roller has been appointed acting dean. Final exams! Another quarter has ended. March A new quarter, new students, and new resolutions. Would any knowledge-seeking student like to be directed to the library? Sponsored by the Federal Emergency Relief Administration, students of Morris Harvey College, led by Rhenus O’Dell, began a search for data to be used in a complete history of the college and Barboursville. When completed the project will be placed in the college library for public reference. The class tournament in basketball is reputed to have been the most exciting event of the year. Both the boys’ and girls’ teams entered into the sport wholeheartedly. The Sophomores won both events, the Freshmen took second place, the Juniors took third, and the Seniors fourth. April Easter vacation. Back to school. May Founder’s Day, the forty-seventh anniversary of the college, was cele- brated May 16 by the student body and faculty. The Senior play triumphed. We can’t say less of the Blackfriar play. The quarter and school is almost over. June Commencement exercises. Baccalaureate Sunday. Concert by music department Monday. Commencement Tuesday. The Seniors seem so austere and dignified that we can readily imagine their future successes. What’s more, they are no less aware of their abilities. We’re for them in every sense of the word, and we hope not to be forgotten. — Pauline Steppe. — finis — SEVENTY With our Advertisers 1935 — SEVENTY-ONE GREETINGS ★ ★ ★ ★ THE FIRST HUNTINGTON NATIONAL BANK ★ ★ ★ ★ MEMBER FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM Congratulations!
